Chapter 195: Lucky Star Control Group 2
The sick child of the Liu family has recovered!
When the news spread, it caused a small sensation in the village.
"If you ask me, both brothers of the Liu family are capable. If they hadn't been held back by their sickly sister, they wouldn't have been unmarried until now."
"It's all right now. Yao Guanzi doesn't need to take medicine anymore. I think there will be a happy event in their family soon."
"Hey, have you forgotten? That little girl is not only sickly, but also a disaster. With her around, no good girl would dare to marry her. She would be cursed to death."
"I don't like what you said. The little girl of the Liu family is a little unlucky, but she is unlucky on her own and it doesn't affect anyone. Otherwise, how could her father and two brothers be fine?"
"Then her mother was unlucky because of her? Zhang Qiu'er's health was so good back then, but she became ill after giving birth to her little daughter. She passed away within a few years."
"Giving birth is like going through the gates of hell. According to what you said, there are women who died during childbirth. Are those children who survived also disasters?"
"Why not? If he was born to bring misfortune to his mother, how can that be good?"
"Tsk! According to what you said, there are so many disaster stars in every land. We can forget about having a good life and just wait to be killed by them!"
"Hey, you spit first even though you can't win the argument. Isn't that dirty? You are helping the little girl from the Liu family. Could it be that you like her two brothers and want to marry your daughter to them?"
"Bah! My girl has already been engaged, stop talking nonsense here. If you ruin her reputation, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
……
As they were talking, the two women actually started quarreling. If the people around them hadn't stopped them in time, they might have even fought. The two of them hurled harsh words at each other, looked at each other with disgust and went back to their homes. The rest of the people started talking about other gossip.
However, the speaker may not have intended it, but the listener took it to heart, and some people were actually thinking about the marriage of the two brothers of the Liu family.
Not to mention, apart from having a sister with a bad reputation, the two brothers are actually good candidates for sons-in-law.
Liu Yuanqing and Liu Yuanzhuang are both very strong and hardworking. They followed their father Liu to work in the fields in their early years and took good care of the crops. Every year their harvest is a little more than that of other families.
During the slack season, the two of them did not rest and often went to the town to find work, earning a lot of money. If it weren't for buying medicine for their sister, the Liu family would have become rich long ago.
Moreover, their family is very loyal and righteous. A few years ago, someone even urged them to abandon Liu Fangfang. After all, she was just a little girl and not worth spending so much money.
As a result, they drove those people away with dark faces, and later they cut off all contact with them.
Men like this are responsible, and you will feel reassured if you marry your daughter into their family!
Not to mention how many people were already upset, Li Hehua had a quarrel with someone and returned home very angry, and a young girl was walking towards her.
Yan Xiuxiu is thirteen years old this year. She has grown into a graceful young lady. Her face has not fully grown yet, but we can already see her future beauty. The most outstanding thing about her is her skin, which is whiter than snow. She doesn't look like a girl raised in a peasant family at all.
When she saw her little daughter, Li Hehua's anger immediately disappeared. She pulled her to look at her and couldn't stop. Her Xiuxiu was so pretty.
There might not be anyone prettier than her in the whole village, no, in the whole town. She will definitely marry into a good family in the future.
Besides, she is a lucky little star. The good life her family has now is all brought about by her little girl. How can she not like her?
"Mom?" Seeing that the anger on her face had not subsided, Yan Xiuxiu asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
Speaking of this, Li Hehua's anger, which had just subsided, suddenly rose up again, and she complained in a hoarse voice: "It's still that Liu Fangfang!"
"That sickly kid must have stolen my Xiuxiu's good fortune. Not only did he not drown after falling into the river, but he even recovered from the illness that had plagued him for so many years!"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had suffered a great loss, otherwise she would not have quarreled with others before. The Liu family was so shameless. They took advantage of her so much and just gave her a few copper coins to get rid of her.
"Is Fangfang cured?" Yan Xiuxiu looked even more surprised than her.
"That's right!" Li Hehua angrily pointed at her daughter, "I told you a long time ago to stay away from that little girl. Don't get involved with her bad luck, or you'll ruin our family's fortune."
"But you were obsessed with it. You didn't listen to your mother and got involved with her. What happened? You fell into the river and drowned for nothing. She actually got lucky because of you."
Li Hehua was extremely distressed. If it weren't for her little girl, nothing had happened in the past two days and her luck was still as good as ever. Without the facts to support her guess, she would probably have rushed to Liu's house and turned everything upside down.
Yan Xiuxiu's eyes flashed, and she quickly lowered her head obediently, looking like she was being taught: "Don't be angry, Mom. Xiuxiu will listen to you from now on."
Li Hehua patted her head with satisfaction, and said with a look of relief: "This is my good daughter."

Liu Family
Seeing that the water tank at the kitchen door was empty, Chen Yuan picked up the wooden bucket next to it and planned to fetch some water. However, Liu Yuanzhuang, who had just entered the room, saw him and quickly snatched the bucket away.
"Don't move, little sister. Big brother can do this kind of heavy work. Don't tire yourself out. Go sit down and rest for a while."
As he spoke, he diligently brought a small stool and helped her sit down before nodding with satisfaction.
Looking at the young man's hurriedly leaving back, Shen Yuan let out a sigh of relief.
She didn't think fetching water was hard work! This family didn't let her do any work.
Perhaps they were used to the original owner's sickly appearance. Even though they knew he was in good health now, Liu's father and two brothers still treated her like a porcelain doll.
He was so afraid of dropping her if he held her in his hands, and afraid of melting her if he held her in his mouth. He simply wanted to treat her like a Bodhisattva, and hold her on a platform and burn three incense sticks a day to worship her!
But it was not their fault. The original owner did often get into trouble, as if she was possessed by the god of bad luck. Even if she was careful, she could not avoid bumps and bruises.
On the contrary, Yan Xiuxiu, who was born on the same day of the same month and year as her in the same village, has been very lucky since childhood.
When she was a baby, rabbits would run into the yard and die in front of her. When she was old enough to walk, she could kick out a piece of silver when she fell.
When she grew up a little bit more, she became even more amazing. She followed her brother into the mountains, and just by pulling out a ginseng root, she could build a big house for her family immediately.
Later, she randomly rescued a person on the roadside, who turned out to be the prince of a royal palace. Her whole family was taken to the capital to enjoy a good life, and she became the legendary prince's consort.
